A slanted text serif with gently bracketed, wedge-like serifs and a softly calligraphic construction. Strokes show moderate modulation and angled stress, producing a lively rhythm without feeling overly sharp. The capitals are open and slightly narrow with elegant, tapered terminals, while the lowercase is more fluid and cursive-leaning in its joins and curves. Overall spacing feels even and readable, with modest extenders and a consistent, traditional texture in paragraph settings.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and magazine layouts where an italic serif texture can add sophistication and emphasis. It also works effectively for pull quotes, short literary headlines, and brand language that benefits from a traditional, cultivated voice.
The font conveys a classic, bookish tone with a hint of handwritten warmth. Its italic movement and tapered details suggest refinement and tradition, making it feel editorial and quietly expressive rather than rigidly mechanical.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional serif foundation with an expressive italic character—prioritizing comfortable text color, traditional proportions, and calligraphic nuance for elegant, readable composition.
The forms emphasize smooth curves and tapered entry/exit strokes, giving words a gentle forward motion. Numerals follow the same oldstyle-like, calligraphic logic as the letters, blending naturally in running text rather than standing apart.
